Very small room and bathroom, not very good for 2 people. We were put right next to the elevator and woken up throughout the night by mechanical noise. When we mentioned it at check out we were told that's the grade room we got through Expedia. I don’t recall the listing on Expedia saying "small, noisy room."

A mordern new property resides at the side the beautiful Charles River. The room is very spacious and clean. Our room looks over the Charles River. It is minutes walks to green line and 1 mile walk to red line. Close to Kendall square where there are many shops and restaurants. There are a bar and coffee shop inside the hotel. We will come here again!
